Goldstone Pumping Station
Goldstone Pumping Station
Home to a pair of Woolf compound beam pumping engines and also the British Engineerium. The whole collection was up for auction in 2006 but a local benefactor stepped in at the 11th hour (and 59th minute) and saved the lot. It has not yet re-opened as renovations and improvements are in progress.
